Savior of the everyday world of crossover anime

Meanwhile, while Misaka Mikoto was thinking, the coffee shop manager, who was sitting behind the counter, also put the freshly ground coffee beans into a filter and then skillfully brewed them with hot water.

A short while later, a steaming cup of coffee was placed on the table.

"Would you like a mixed coffee, Misaka-san? Having a coffee after work might be a different experience."

"Um, thank you very much, manager."

Upon hearing the coffee shop manager's words, Misaka Mikoto snapped out of her daze, then politely picked up the mixed coffee that had been pushed towards her and tasted it.

It's slightly bitter, but mostly has the rich aroma of coffee.

"tastes good."

To be honest, Misaka Mikoto doesn't really know much about coffee, but as long as it doesn't taste bad, then saying it tastes good is the right thing to do.

"Haha, actually I'm quite confident in my blended coffee. To balance flavor and aroma, I have to choose five different types of coffee beans, and I've put a lot of effort into the blending process to flexibly combine their individual flavors..."

Misaka Mikoto could hear the middle-aged shop manager boasting about his coffee, to which she could only awkwardly but politely agree from time to time.

The manager of this coffee shop seems to be a very professional coffee enthusiast, especially when it comes to blended coffee. Whenever someone is around while he's brewing, he always has to say something. She's heard this kind of talk more than once during the few days she's been working here.

Just then, the sound of brakes came from outside the coffee shop.

The coffee shop door was opened, and a driver in a black suit stood outside waiting. A young man who looked quite young walked in slowly, immediately attracting Misaka Mikoto's attention.

Of course, although the other person was very handsome, what attracted her was not his looks, but the burly man in a suit standing guard outside the door, and his unusual behavior after entering the store.

After entering the store, Takahashi Yu went straight to the front desk.

"Misaka Mikoto, would it be convenient for us to chat?"

"You are..."

Looking at the stranger in front of her, Misaka Mikoto instinctively felt a sense of wariness. Just as she was about to refuse, she suddenly saw the other person take out a photo.

The photo shows a chaotic alleyway.

Although Tokyo is the most bustling political center in Japan, there are indeed dark, dilapidated, and deserted alleys like the one in the photo. Moreover, the key to the photo's content is clearly not the background of the alley, but the environment within the photo.

The alley's ground and surrounding walls looked as if they had been subjected to hundreds of thousands of volts of high voltage, with cracks and charred marks everywhere. In the deepest part, it had been blasted into ruins by an unknown force.

An ordinary person might assume that the place in the photo had suffered some major accident, but only Misaka Mikoto knew that the scene in the picture was not caused by an ordinary accident, but by the damage caused by her accidentally using her electric shock ability when she was emotionally agitated when she first arrived in this world.

In Academy City, any Level 5 esper possesses the terrifying power to single-handedly contend with a modern army; the destruction depicted in the photo is merely a small fraction of Misaka Mikoto's own power.

But now that this person has taken it out and placed it in front of him, the situation is clearly not right.

Chapter 59: Containment and Observation, Handling of the Railgun

In Academy City, any Level 5 esper possesses the terrifying power to single-handedly contend with a modern army; the destruction depicted in the photo is merely a small fraction of Misaka Mikoto's own power.

But now that this person has taken it out and placed it in front of him, the situation is clearly not right.

Inside the coffee shop, Misaka Mikoto and Takahashi Yu sat facing each other.

The store manager had already been politely asked to leave by Takahashi Yu's subordinates, since it was not appropriate for ordinary people to eavesdrop on the following conversation.

How did you find out about me?

As soon as she sat down, Misaka Mikoto couldn't help but ask a question.

Since the other party was able to obtain the photos and clearly locate her, they must have solid evidence. Therefore, she did not attempt to defend herself but honestly admitted what she had done.

"In fact, we had our sights set on you from the very beginning. After all, there are many unusual phenomena in this world, and we are quite experienced in dealing with such situations."

Takahashi Yu then answered.

"From the very beginning? That means..."

If her identity was discovered from the beginning, then what was the point of hiding her abilities all these days?

And since they found her from the beginning, does that mean these people just watched a middle school girl wander outside for several days?

Thinking of this, Misaka Mikoto's face darkened, and she felt like she had been a fool a week ago.

However, despite this, Misaka Mikoto still managed to glean a piece of information from the person in front of her.

Are there many people in this world like me?

Misaka Mikoto asked, somewhat uncertainly.

Although the other party said that they had been discovered from the beginning, she felt that she should still be cautious, because maybe her identity as someone from another world had not yet been exposed?

However, Takahashi Yu's next words shattered her illusions.

“Cases like Misaka’s are not many in this world, but they are not uncommon either. However, most of them are monsters from other worlds or unknown dangerous items.”

"However, Misaka-san is a first in a series of cases where someone possesses great power but chooses not to cause destruction."

Takahashi Yu stroked his chin and said that he was not lying on this point. It was extremely rare for a character like Misaka Mikoto from a previous anime to descend into this world. Before this, the closest thing to Misaka Mikoto was the ghouls in the ghoul world. However, the ghouls that came to this world were just extras, and none of them had a name or identity in the original work.

"Oh, by the way, the damage caused by Misaka-san when she descended into this world has been dealt with by the staff at the containment facility, and it has not had any further impact on the nearby residents."

"Yeah, that's great."

Upon hearing this, Misaka Mikoto smiled somewhat guiltily.

Given the power that Takahashi Yu currently wields in Japan, it would be incredibly easy for him to cover up an "electricity leak" incident, even in Tokyo, let alone elsewhere.

However, Misaka Mikoto was unaware of these things and thought that she had caused a lot of trouble for others due to a momentary mistake.

"By the way, since you've dealt with many cases like mine, what kind of treatment will I face next?"

Suddenly, Misaka Mikoto spoke up and asked a question.

Since cases like hers are not uncommon in this world, surely the people of this world already have a complete and specific procedure for handling the aftermath?

"Yes, cases like Misaka's are collectively referred to as anomalous phenomena here, and anomalous phenomena are handled by my organization called Anomalous Containment."

"For those anomalous phenomena that manifest themselves in the form of tangible objects, we call them containment objects. The specific approach is to contain them properly to ensure that their threat level is minimized, while also conducting a certain degree of research on the containment objects."

"Although Misaka-san possesses intelligence and has not caused any damage since arriving in this world, unfortunately, in principle, she still belongs to the containment object unit."

As a containment object, in other words, if following the normal procedure, Takahashi Yu should have captured Misaka Mikoto and locked her in a containment facility for research.

However, having read A Certain Magical Index and A Certain Scientific Railgun in her previous life, Takahashi Yu knew Misaka Mikoto's temperament very well, so she would never do something so foolish.

After all, even though they would likely win in a fight, there was no need to push a superpowered individual who was already on their side to the opposite side.

"Given Misaka's special circumstances, we have decided to temporarily abandon the forced containment measures. However, in return, Misaka will need to sign a confidentiality agreement and undergo observation as a containment object for a period of time to determine whether to proceed with containment. We hope Misaka can understand."

"I understand, I agree to accept the consequences."

Misaka Mikoto nodded without objecting.

Clearly, Misaka Mikoto is willing to accept any treatment from Takahashi Yu and others who appear to be from an official organization, as long as their demands are not excessive.

Despite possessing the immense power to single-handedly destroy a modern army, and theoretically having no rival in the real world except for Takahashi Yu, she is far easier to contain than a ghoul.

Even if it weren't Takahashi Yu who came here today, but just any staff member from the shelter, the outcome wouldn't change.

It must be said that when dealing with such upright individuals, the authorities are indeed a useful banner. It seems that the plans to control the upper echelons of Japan and the replacement of personnel need to be accelerated.

"Alright, since Miss Misaka has no objections, then come with me. I will take you to the containment facility to sign the relevant confidentiality agreement and inform you of the matters you need to pay attention to."

"This is an ordinary world. It's best to keep those powers that defy common sense out of sight of ordinary people. The main purpose of the containment facility is to ensure that ordinary humans can live under relatively reasonable common sense."

Takahashi Yu got up from her seat in the coffee shop and walked towards the door, while Misaka Mikoto got up and followed behind her.

On the way to the containment facility, Takahashi Yu gave Misaka Mikoto a briefing on the current state of the world and the main business scope of the anomalous containment facility.

"I never imagined there were so many dangers in this world."

After hearing Takahashi Yu's description, Misaka Mikoto felt a chill run down her spine.

Unexpectedly, this seemingly peaceful world not only has superpowered individuals like myself from another world, but also cannibalistic ghouls, terrifying vengeful spirits, and horrific biochemical viruses, and more dangers will continue to emerge in the future.

This world is truly terrifying!

...

PS: Regarding the talents in the One-Punch Man world, the author thought about it carefully. Actually, Metal Knight and the older brother of the giant brother in the original work could also be recruited. They just need to brainwash them and change their memories. They happen to have Metal Knight's technological abilities, so if any large-scale destruction occurs in the protagonist's everyday world in the future, it will be easier to repair them.

Or perhaps the protagonist will establish a new organization in the future, such as Academy City or Schicksal's floating islands. At least there's no need to worry about infrastructure. However, the Metal Knight in the original work doesn't seem like a good person, and the author is worried that ONE might do something shady, so he's hesitant to write it. Even if he does, he can't show too many other abilities.

Additionally, if you have any worlds or characters you'd like the author to write about or add, please leave a message. The author will make reasonable arrangements based on the situation. For example, characters like Misaka Mikoto who appear as an anomaly. Currently, Touhou Project is tentatively planned (Touhou Project will never be out of fashion; as long as the author writes another book, Touhou Project will definitely be included).

Chapter 60: Déjà vu? No, it must be an illusion!

In other words, she doesn't know what Misaka Mikoto is thinking. If Takahashi Yu knew, she would definitely yell at her.

Even if their world is dangerous, it is definitely not as outrageous as the world of A Certain Magical Index where Misaka Mikoto previously lived.

In that world, demons and gods were everywhere, each capable of restarting the universe at will. Let alone biochemical viruses or ghouls, even if you threw Takahashi Yu and all his clones over there, it wouldn't be enough to fill their teeth.

In other words, Misaka Mikoto remained unaware of the truth throughout the Academy City's technological exploration storyline; otherwise, someone else might have been glad they left that world.

......

Upon arriving at the shelter, Misaka Mikoto looked around as soon as she entered.

After all, according to what was said earlier, this should be where she lives for the next period of time.

Logistics area, management area, monitoring area, experimental area, containment area, training area...

Misaka Mikoto's gaze swept across the area, and she could see staff members from the containment facility walking by from time to time, as well as people who were tightly bound and gagged being pushed into the experimental area.

Those 'people' kept roaring, as if they wanted to get out of here.

Those who don't know the situation might think this is some kind of horrific human experimentation.

However, Misaka Mikoto was explained by Takahashi Yu, who was beside her, that these so-called 'people' were the ghouls that fed on humans and specialized in eating people, as mentioned earlier.

Because of their high research value in kagune, coupled with the strong regenerative ability and resilience of ghouls, they quickly became the primary research subject chosen by the scientists at the research institute.

If it weren't for the fact that new ghouls are still appearing in Chiba City from time to time, there simply wouldn't be enough ghouls for so many people to share.

Upon entering the reception area, Takahashi Yu pushed a confidentiality agreement that had been prepared in advance onto the table in front of Misaka Mikoto.

"According to regulations, in this world, it is forbidden to use special abilities in front of ordinary people without approval. During this period, you will need to be observed and studied in the containment facility."

"During the observation period, you are not allowed to leave the shelter without permission. Your accommodation and three meals a day will be provided by the shelter. If you have any needs, you can directly tell the relevant personnel. As a special inmate under observation, all your requests will be met as much as possible under normal circumstances."
